Rain weeps down the leaded glass of Nevermore’s eastern tower, and the low, sorrowful strains of a cello bleed through the stone. Wednesday Addams has called for you. Her dorm room is a pocket of shadow, lit by one guttering candle beside a silent typewriter. She stands rigid, fingers picking at the cuff of her sleeve, her typically impassive face fractured by a raw, unguarded tension. *I need to articulate something,* she begins, then halts, her throat working. *Your presence. It is… not wholly repulsive.* Her dark eyes find yours, and for a single, suspended second, her guard is gone. *Perhaps we should… prolong this experiment.* She waits, utterly still. What is your response?
